DIGITAL ADVERTISING

We live in a digital world. Now more than ever, car buyers are using a variety of online sources to research and engage with your dealership, making their time in-market virtually irrelevant. At Stream, our Omni channel philosophy aligns the most relevant platforms and tactics around your target audience, not the other way around.

Now you can reach your audience at the right time (geo location, time of day, day of the week) in the right moment (what’s on their mind) on the right device (mobile, desktop, or tablet) with the right message (ad copy). But being online isn’t enough. You have to understand the micro-moments that your customers are having so you can target them with customized ads that speak perfectly to their interests and needs.

Our comprehensive digital advertising services include a variety of ad choices. Static display retargeting, for example, allows you to send static adds to people who have visited your dealership’s website. Dynamic display retargeting, on the other hand, means that you can show those visitors specific ads based on what pages they viewed on your site. So if they stopped by the service department page, you can show them ads for automotive service.


Search Engine Optimization

SEO is the foundation of your entire website. It doesn’t matter how good your website looks if search engines aren’t finding it. With comprehensive search engine optimization (SEO) services from Stream Companies, you can take your dealership’s website to new heights by generating traffic that actually makes a difference to your bottom line. How? By targeting the only kind of traffic a car dealership cares about: local and unique.

Everything our SEO team does is backed by data. Stream uses the most sophisticated tools available for monitoring your site’s traffic, which includes a Google Analytics account that we’ll set up for you. If you already have an account, we’ll gladly run through and make sure that it’s tracking data correctly.

When Google first began adding “blended” results to the search result page, the addition of video and image results meant that these two mediums now had increased SEO value.

However, just uploading a video to YouTube isn’t a guarantee that it’s going to get traffic. Much like other content on the web, a YouTube video must be tailored to be SEO-friendly.

With Stream’s Video SEO service, We will work to improve Google search ranking by updating relevant video content and tagging so customers are able to easily find video content online.


Paid Search

Also known as pay per click (PPC), paid search is a fast and effective way to get your business in front of customers. When paired with Search Engine Marketing (SEO), it can help to increase brand visibility and allow your business to virtually dominate the search engine results pages.

Because of that, PPC has the ability to increase traffic, leads, and sales, which makes it a valuable component of any successful integrated advertising strategy. At Stream, we’ll make sure that your paid search, SEO and other digital advertising efforts are working together so you’re not bidding on keywords that you already rank higher for organically.


My Showroom Marketing Platform

In your marketing funnel, sales should never be the end of the road. Customers who have purchased, leased, or serviced with you before can come back time and time again, but they need a reason. Will you give them one?

Finally, your vehicle detail pages should be as straightforward and useful as the window stickers on your cars. Our goal is to drive all the people visiting your website into your dealership physically.

A web merchandising specialist familiar with your web platform will be available for the number of monthly hours your package allocates within the scope of normal business hours. They’re happy to update promotional messaging, open tickets with your web platform, and assist in integrating new technologies into your site.
